Icon description route Description

This beautiful walk took us through a part of southern Luxembourg.

Parking is easy at the spacious, free parking lot on Rue du Vieux Moulin in Lamadelaine. The walk is composed based on the Auto-pédestre Lamadelaine, which is about 8 km long. We found that a bit short and, using local walks, we made it a nice 11.5 km.

During this walk, the hiker gets closely acquainted with the industrial past of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. The contemporary industry can be seen in the distance. However, it doesn't cause any disturbance, unless you find the industry in the distance disturbing. ;o)

The walk passes by the Minett Park Fond-de-Gras. An old railway and mining complex that has been transformed into a tourist site. Furthermore, you see a lot of nature where traces in the form of old railway beds, buildings, paths, etc., are still clearly visible.
